Chelsea vs Brentford Betting Odds, Picks, & Predictions April 2nd, 2022

Chelsea vs Brentford Odds

As sports bettors, we’re always looking for value odds. Although the NCAAB tournament is going on, today’s pick is a soccer bet in the English Premier League. My analysis for this EPL betting pick is below.

Today, I’ve got a soccer bet on FanDuel sportsbook. My bet is for the Chelsea vs Brentford match on 4/2. I really like the value of under 2.5 goals in the game at +108 odds on FanDuel. Most of the sharp action has been coming in on the under, and I think there’s a lot of value in betting under 2.5 goals if you’re able to get plus money. My bet for this match is shown below.

According to the bookmakers, Brentford has only a 10% probability of winning this game. Lines have been moving towards Chelsea, and Brentford is all the way up to +1000 moneyline odds on DraftKings sportsbook, as seen in the picture below. I think Chelsea will win the game, but I don’t have a bet on the moneyline – Chelsea is best offered at -315 odds on BetRivers, but these moneyline odds are too juiced for me to bet on.

Since Chelsea is a big favorite, they of course should do the majority of the scoring. However, Chelsea has not scored over two goals in their last 3 EPL games. They’ve had mediocre offensive performances in their last three games, and I think this trend will continue against Brentford. Brentford has a solid defense; where Brentford really struggles is offense.

My soccer prediction for this game is that Chelsea will win 2-0 or 1-0. For this reason, I went with the under 2.5 goals, which was a bet found on the OddsJam Positive EV sports betting software. You can see the current odds for the total number of goals in Chelsea vs Brentford below. FanDuel is the only sportsbook giving plus money on the under 2.5 goals! This is why it’s so important to have multiple sportsbooks – why would you want to place this bet at -110 odds on DraftKings when you can get +108 on FanDuel?

Chelsea vs Brentford pick: 

Under 2.5 goals at +108 odds on FanDuel sportsbook.
